They had something similar on TV here recently, but for the life of me I can't remember what show it was on. I wish I had payed more attention, but it was dinner time and the TV was on in the background.

It could quite possibly have been Today Tonight, and I don't remember it being about this person, but it might have been. The person they were interviewing states they had scientific proof that Heaven exists. If I can find the story I'll post a link.
